How did you find out about MASA? |
"Google. I was looking for a volunteer program which would allow me to spend some time abroad. Go Galilee looked interesting" |
|
Plans after MASA |
"I'm not sure" |
|
In his own words |
"It's an amazing experience to help people in what I consider to be my second home and to learn about myself while I am doing it." |
|
MASA program |
Go Galilee |
Joel is now teaching English in a high school in Tiberias as part of his Go Galilee volunteer work. In the afternoons he helps to paint and fix community shelters and works with Ethiopian immigrants.
He is pictured here (sitting, lower left) with MASA staff and with other Go Galilee participants from around the world.
